What Is Wiki
Wiki is in the inventor Ward Cunningham's original description: The simplest online database that could possibly work.
"A wiki is a computer program that lets people around the world collaborate to create and update Web pages. The resulting collections of pages are also known as wikis. But there's more to it than that. Anyone who reads a wiki -- yes, anyone -- can also easily make changes, corrections and additions, create whole new pages, and even correct the way the wiki is organized."
The largest wiki on multiple subjects is the English version of Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia created by volunteers who contribute information based on their expertise or knowledge.
Ward Cunningham is now an architect in Microsoft's Prescriptive Architecture Guidance group, which produces patterns and practices for developers using Microsoft's .Net development platform.
